Swedish Sugar Cookies Recipe 🇸🇪🍪
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 96 cookies (8 dozen cookies)
Ingredients:
- 2 cups shortening
- 2 cups butter
- 4 cups sugar
- 6 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 cups shredded coconut
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper or greasing lightly.
-
Cream Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shortening, butter, and sugar. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the ingredients together until light and fluffy.
-
Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, baking soda, and baking powder to the creamed mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and you have a smooth dough.
-
Incorporate Flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract and shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Form Cookies: Drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie for spreading during baking.
-
Flatten Cookies: Take a flat-bottomed cup and dip it into sugar. Use the sugared bottom of the cup to gently flatten each cookie dough ball, creating a slightly flattened shape.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake the cookies for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown around the edges.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. Serve and enjoy!
